Synopsis

This book examines advanced composites, such as biocomposites, hybrid composites, hybrid biocomposites, and nanocomposites to address the COVID-19 pandemic. In the past two years, composite materials have grown in strength, stature, and significance to become a key material of enhanced scientific interest and resultant research into understanding their behavior for selection and safe use in a wide spectrum of technology-related applications. The authors describe distinctive features of these materials, such as low density, high strength, high elastic modulus, high hardness, high temperature endurance, and outstanding chemical and environmental stability. The book further discusses recent global scenarios during the pandemic, composite and biocomposite materials characterization, design solutions, the characteristics and performance of materials and structures, and their roles in reducing virus spread. It also looks at the prospects, obstacles, and future directions of composites.
